Zhu Di would not fulfill Li Chenggui's wish.
Before even shouting a few words, Li Chenggui was stuffed into the mouth by several soldiers with a ball of smelly cloth, dragged out of the palace gate, and tied tightly to an open space outside the palace gate.
at the same time.
In the city, the rebel armies united by Li Chenggui were suppressed iron-bloodedly by Bian Anlie, Chen Zhi, Zhang Xing and other soldiers with the Yanshan Guard soldiers who had been preparing for several days.
By the time the Goryeo dignitaries in the city reacted, groups of Yanshan guards had already arrived and delivered Zhu Di's order.
Hearing that Li Chenggui failed in his rebellion, relief flashed in the eyes of many Goryeo dignitaries, and then they followed Yanshan Wei to the palace.
Palace entrance.
In front of Li Chenggui, rows of Li family members were kneeling on their knees, as well as some Goryeo nobles who had followed Li Chenggui in rebellion.
As for the King of Goryeo, Wang You, he was sitting on the chair opposite, looking at him with a pale face.
There is also a circle of cloth wrapped around the neck, and there is faint blood oozing out.
The eyes of those Goryeo dignitaries shrank, and they all believed Zhu Di's words.
Li Chenggui is so heartbroken that he even wants to assassinate the king!
When he turned his head again and looked at Li Chenggui and all the familiar faces on the stage, his eyes were full of complex colors.
Who would have thought that they were sitting together a few days ago, talking happily about business with Prince Yan's Mansion.
Today's meeting was in this form.
However, after today, there will be so many more cities, shops, and fields.
Some of the Goryeo dignitaries' eyes were already shining and they began to think secretly.
"ah……"
Soon, pitiful shouts brought all the Goryeo dignitaries back to reality.
There was a lean Yanshan Guard soldier, holding only a sharp knife in his front hand, cutting Li Chenggui's flesh bit by bit.
"This punishment is the punishment that I, the Ming Dynasty Emperor, use to punish those rebellious and corrupt officials. It is called death by a thousand cuts. Many people should have heard of this punishment...
The executioner must be able to use a knife to cut off the thief's flesh and blood one by one. During this process, Li Chenggui will not be allowed to die. He will not be allowed to die until he has cut a thousand cuts..."
Chen Shou grinned widely and loudly introduced to a group of Goryeo dignitaries.
At the same time, it was also accompanied by Li Chenggui's screams.
Every time Li Chenggui screamed, Wang Yu and all the Goryeo dignitaries on the side couldn't help but shudder.
What frightened them even more was that after an hour, Li Chenggui was not dead yet and was still screaming.
As for Li Chenggui's body, his white bones have begun to show, making all Goryeo dignitaries unable to bear to look directly at him.
In the end, no one knew how many hours it took Li Chenggui to die.
However, Li Chenggui's body had turned into a skeleton.
When they went back in the evening, not a single Goryeo dignitary could afford to eat.
Even at night, I couldn't sleep well and kept having nightmares.
This situation lasted for three or four days before they gradually recovered.
…
Within the Commerce Department.
Shang Kezhou is the trade envoy of the Department of Commerce and Trade.
Similarly, there is a colleague, a deputy envoy, and a minister in the Department of Commerce and Trade. The four of them can be regarded as the main officials of the Department of Commerce and Trade.
The rest were some soldiers and a few officials selected from the nobles of Goryeo.
"Everyone, you have finished reading. If everything is correct, I will report to His Highness King Yan and start sailing to Daming!"
At the head of the Department of Commerce and Trade, after all the Goryeo dignitaries below had read the account books, Shang Kezhou said with a gentle expression.
A group of Goryeo dignitaries quickly replied: "Thank you very much, Ambassador Shang, we have already checked everything.
There are no errors in the account books recorded by your company. They are all clear and clear. I admire them very much. "
Shang Kezhou smiled slightly and said, "As long as there are no mistakes, there are so many goods. No matter how careful I am, sometimes there may be some mistakes. I need you to pay more attention. If you find any mistakes, point them out. That’s it.”
"Yes, yes, Ambassador Shang is absolutely right."
All the dignitaries responded one after another with humility on their faces.
Since Zhu Di beheaded Li Chenggui, these Goryeo dignitaries no longer have the courage they used to have.
Whatever you do, do it with caution and caution.
Now, even looking at the account books is full of fear.
Regarding these, Guo An specifically told Shang Kezhou that he must comfort these frightened dignitaries.
Don't let these Goryeo dignitaries be too afraid, but don't let these Goryeo dignitaries dare to rebel again.
Therefore, taking this opportunity, Shang Ke Zhou Bizhi said: "Don't worry, my Highness just wants to do business with Goryeo and make some money. As long as you don't rebel like Cui and Li, His Highness will definitely I won’t embarrass you innocently.
There will be no torture like that of the two thieves Cui Ying and Li Chenggui...
Of course, you should not harm the common people. Your Highness still expects those common people to grow food. "
"Thank you Shang Kezhou, of course I can't!"
Hearing this, all the Goryeo dignitaries breathed a sigh of relief.
Later, a Goryeo dignitary remembered something and couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Dare you ask Ambassador Shang, I don't know the torture of the Ming Dynasty..."
"It's harsh!"
Shang Kezhou seemed to have remembered something frightening, his face suddenly became solemn.
"His Majesty the Ming Emperor hates corrupt officials and thieves, so he has instituted many tortures. Is the death of the traitor Li Chenggui by a thousand cuts just one of them?"
"There are a lot more?"
A Goryeo dignitary asked with a pale face.
"Um!"
Shang Kezhou nodded slightly, "So you must remember that His Highness King Yan is usually gentle and generous, and even reasonable. However, you must not make mistakes, such as being greedy, bullying the people, or rebelling..."
"Otherwise, not to mention all of you, even I and other officials in Prince Yan's Palace would have to suffer that kind of torture!"
Hearing this, the expressions of all the Goryeo dignitaries became solemn again.
They Goryeo dignitaries made mistakes, even if they failed to fight for political power, many of them were dispatched and few killed, let alone tortured.
I didn’t expect that Ming Dynasty would be so cruel!
"I don't know that the superior officers of the Ming Dynasty suffered these tortures..."
A Goryeo dignitary asked boldly.
"many!"
Shang Kezhou nodded directly, "There are many officials who have been tortured, and there are many types of torture."
As he said this, Shang Kezhou seemed to think of something. He flipped through the desk in front of him a few times and pulled out a book, "The Great Edict".
"Everyone can take a look at it. This book is the law and torture of the Ming Dynasty personally formulated by the Ming Emperor. It is easy to cut into pieces with thousands of cuts. It also includes skinning, pulling out intestines, rinsing, picking muscles and removing bones. , Dig your knees..."
All the Goryeo dignitaries shuddered subconsciously, quickly took the "Da Gao" and opened it to read.
Shang Kezhou continued: "In the past two years, I, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, killed tens of thousands of corrupt officials and wealthy businessmen...heads were rolling, and blood was flowing like rivers...
Therefore, even when we arrived in Goryeo, I and others did not dare to act recklessly, and used this "Great Edict" to warn us all the time..."
All the Goryeo dignitaries nodded in response while looking at the "Da Gao" in their hands. The more they looked at it, the more frightened they became.
The Ming Emperor treated his officials too harshly!
Thinking of this, all the Goryeo dignitaries bowed their hands to Shang Kezhou with sincere faces, "Thank you, Ambassador Shang!"
"No problem, no problem!"
Shang Keyi waved his hands indifferently, "As long as I and others do not commit any crimes and are loyal to His Highness, there is no need to fear these tortures.
Even if you are being bullied, you can take this "Great Edict" and go to find His Highness King Yan and ask His Highness to seek justice..."
Hearing this, all the dignitaries of Goryeo couldn't help but think deeply.
Suddenly, Shang Kezhou thought of something, glanced at these Goryeo dignitaries warily, and said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, you have finished reading, please return this book to me!"
The Goryeo dignitary holding the "Da Gao" in his hand subconsciously clenched the book in his hand and looked at Shang Kezhou expectantly.
"Ambassador Shang, we also want to use this book to stay alert day and night...I wonder if Ambassador Shang can lend us this book so that we can make a copy..."
Shang Keyi looked surprised.
"Do you also want this "Great Edict" to keep you alert day and night?"
A group of Goryeo dignitaries said with sincerity on their faces: "Please Ambassador Shang, please grant me your loyalty and allow me to look at His Majesty the Ming Emperor's treasured book..."
"That's not impossible!"
Shang Kezhou nodded slightly, still a little reluctant, "I can only lend it to you for five days. After five days, it must be returned to me without any damage!"
"Thank you, Ambassador Shang..."
All the Goryeo dignitaries were overjoyed.
Afterwards, a group of Goryeo dignitaries took the "Da Gao" and left in a hurry.
In the Department of Commerce and Trade, Shang Kezhou and other officials had strange expressions on their faces.
Afterwards, Shang Kezhou smiled and took the compiled account books to find Guo An. After Guo An read the account books, he took Shang Kezhou to find Zhu Di.
"These Goryeo dignitaries actually want to sell so many objects to my Ming Dynasty?"
After reading the account books, Zhu Di looked surprised.
Guo An chuckled and said: "Your Highness, they are the dignitaries of the country after all. So many things are not too much."
Zhu Di nodded slightly, and then asked with some concern: "So, can the fifty big ships be loaded on it?"
On the side, Shang Kezhou hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, don't worry. In addition to the property that was previously confiscated, these goods have been loaded on big ships, and only thirty-five big ships!"
"Very good!"
Zhu Di was very satisfied and asked: "So, if so many goods come to Beiping Mansion, can they be sold at once?"
Guo An looked confident.
"Did His Highness forget Zhangjiawan Pier?"
Zhu Di's eyes lit up. During this season, dozens of fleets would come in and out of Zhangjiawan Pier every day.
As long as these goods are placed at Zhangjiawan Wharf, they will be sold out within half a month.
"So, will Guo Qing go back with the fleet?"
Guo An said respectfully: "We are all under the orders of His Highness."
After pondering for a moment, Zhu Di looked at Guo An and said seriously: "Can Guo Qing guard Wang Jing?"
"Wei Chen will do his best!"
Guo An replied.
Zhu Di said: "This time, I led the troops to capture the King of Goryeo. For such a great achievement, I will personally report it to my father.
In addition, these Yanshan guards of Goryeo need to take turns guarding Goryeo, and I need to ask my father for instructions to recruit some soldiers.
What else does Guo Qing need? "
Guo An pondered for a moment and then said: "Your Highness, if I have more sugar in Prince Yan's Mansion, Your Highness can also bring some.
As long as such treasures are shipped to Korea, the price will be ten times higher.
In addition, Your Highness is requested to bring 10,000 more incendiary bombs and grenades each.
Just by transporting the goods of more than 30 large ships back to Beiping Mansion, Prince Yan's Mansion can earn more than 300,000 taels of silver...
If we transport my goods from Ming Dynasty again, we can earn more than 200,000 taels..."
"..."
